Centene, tango and WellSky are excited to announce the expansion of our partnership to Texas, effective July 1, 2025.

The tango – WellSky solution brings a first of its kind partnership to the market to use the leading technology and services capabilities of WellSky and the skilled home health enablement expertise of tango to deliver a fully integrated proactive post-acute care program, that streamlines and coordinates a cohesive provider and member experience across the post-acute continuum.

Tango – WellSky will be the delegated manager for Centene's skilled home health and post-acute care benefits related to skilled nursing facilities, inpatient rehabilitation facilities, and long-term acute care hospitals.
